Seven Seasons

Seven Seasons on Hoxton Street is a no-frills craft beer bar pouring a carefully curated selection of rotating brews from top UK microbreweries. With a stripped-back interior and a focus on flavour, it's a haven for hop heads and casual drinkers alike.

The Five Points Brewing Co

Based in Hackney, The Five Points Brewing Co is hosting a bevvy of beer-inspired events. Whether you head to their green hop festival, tasting session or market over in Coal Drops Yard, you're sure to have a fab booze-fuelled day out.

Ale Hunters

From tasting tours of heritage pubs to trips around local breweries, Ale Hunters are bringing hop lovers a whole range of craft beer events to sink their teeth into. Perfect for uncovering hidden gems and meeting like-minded people, these experiences are not to be missed.

Fiddle Paradiddle's Pop-Up Ceilidh

When it comes down to hop-tastic events, Small Beer knows how to give everything a little added pizzazz. Inside this South Bermondsey venue, you'll get to guzzle a variety of low and no-alcohol pours. Or if you fancy something else, head to The Bedford for drinking and dancing.

@ The Bermondsey Bierkeller on Saturday 18th April 2026 and 3 other Saturdays

When it comes to beer events in London, Springfest at The Bermondsey Bierkeller raises the bar, and the stein. Showcasing authentic pours from Munich's legendary Paulaner, this April celebration is a love letter to Bavarian brewing culture, served with a side of live brass bands and bench-standing sing-alongs.

Between bites of giant pretzels and frankfurters, you can soak up the live entertainment before switching gears to DJs and party mash-ups.
